Handling of hyphenation

Syd will post to TEI-L asking how to distinguish "his-tory" and "run-on" when they break across lines. Both would take break="no", but how to allow for searching of "history" and "run-on"?

Syd re-read P5 and emailed Kevin that he thinks we can handle this without a wider call. Kevin agreed with Syd on a solution and made the revisions to main-driver.odd and level4.odd. Asked Syd to check over the changes to main-driver.odd and level4.odd. Then will update the SIG on our handling of this issue and on the final work on the BP as a whole.

Syd said everything looked fine but made an additional suggestion, which Kevin just committed.

Bug fixes

Fix schema bug where list element is not allowed except as a child of p.

Syd put model.inter back into model.common at Levels 3 and 4. This fixed the problem. Syd wonders whether this change will have any side-effect; he will investigate further.

Copyediting

Change all instances of "must" to "should" and "required" to "recommended", and all existing "recommended" to "optional". All this is in accordance with RFC 2119 and with the BP's general policy of not requiring anything but simply being "best practices". Clarify that the ODDs require things just to encourage conformance.

Copyedit element recommendations at each level to avoid awkward and misleading syntax.

Not finding anything in particular to fix. I think I was just tired when reading these in person with Syd.

Remove ODD markup in level specifications that Syd added from P5 so as not to include examples that contradict rest of Guidelines.

Commented out gloss, desc, exemplum, remarks, and listRef in level1.odd for Syd to check over before I do in other levels. (Kshawkin 20:47, 5 September 2011 (EDT))

Syd said he un-commented out these elements. He'll review the 79 elements in the various ODDs to check for conflict with the BP prose. That way we can include them with our release. (Kshawkin 10:46, 3 October 2011 (EDT))

Edit main-driver.odd to review metadata for the BP as a whole (in both the teiHeader and front elements): editors (stated more prominently than in the appendix), copyright, version number, etc. Check with Michelle on whether we should revise acknowledgment of DLF support.

In teiHeader, added Michelle as <editor> and copyedited name of SIG. Having been in touch with DLF recently, I'm pretty sure our statement of support is sufficient.
